Ge Dongxu cleaned up the room, took out all the things from his suitcase and arranged them neatly. Seeing that it was almost eleven o'clock, he went downstairs and prepared to go to Songyang Town, the county town to take a walk around and find a suitable place to have lunch.

Walking to the second floor, Cheng Hao's mother Wu Xiaojuan was already preparing lunch in the kitchen. When she heard the movement at the stairs, she turned around and saw that it was Ge Dongxu, so she smiled and called him, "Dongxu, let's have lunch with my aunt at noon."

"Thank you, aunt, no need." Although Wu Xiaojuan was just a polite word, Ge Dongxu still felt warm in his heart, hurriedly thanked him, and then went downstairs.

Seeing Ge Dongxu go downstairs, Wu Xiaojuan smiled and shook her head, her eyes showing satisfaction and relief. Living in her family, although it should be helpful to her son's study, it also brings many inconveniences. Just like eating, it seems that Ge Dongxu doesn't make her angry, but Ge Dongxu is really not polite to her. Eating with them every day is still a matter of money, but it destroys the atmosphere of the family. Now that Ge Dongxu understands the rules so well, Wu Xiaojuan is relieved.

After going downstairs, Ge Dongxu was about to leave from the back door, but remembered that he had forgotten to get the keys from the landlord. If the store door is closed later, it would be inconvenient to knock on the door, so he pushed open the door between the back room and the store.

In the store, the landlord Cheng Yazhou was sitting behind the cashier playing card series to pass the time. When he saw Ge Dongxu pushing the door from behind, he asked with a smile: "Do you want to go out?"

"Yes, let's get to know each other and buy something by the way." Ge Dongxu replied.

"It's all this order, why don't you have lunch with your uncle first and then let Hao take you around." Cheng Yazhou looked at the time and said.

"Thank you uncle. It's not a day or two for me to live in your house. You don't have to be polite to me." Ge Dongxu said.

"You kid is really sensible. As long as Hao is half as sensible as you, I will feel relieved. Okay, that uncle is not polite to you, but now that you are alone, so if you need your uncle's help, don't be polite to me." Cheng Yazhou saw that Ge Dongxu's answer was very decent and admired, so he no longer was polite to him.

"Thank you, uncle, I understand. By the way, are there any extra keys to the back door here? If I don't have a fight myself, I won't have to go in and out of your store in the future and disturb you from doing business." Ge Dongxu said.

"Look at my brain, I forgot to give you the keys. This is the keys for the back door and your room. You can take it, and there are some spares on Uncle." Cheng Yazhou smiled and patted his head, then took out a bunch of keys from the drawer, took out two hands and handed them to Ge Dongxu.

"Thank you uncle, then I'll go out for a walk around now." Ge Dongxu took the key and thanked him.

"Okay, be careful." Cheng Yazhou explained, lowered his head and continued to play card succession.

After leaving Cheng Yazhou's house, Ge Dongxu roughly identified the direction and walked east along the street.

Changxi No. 1 Middle School is located east of Cheng Yazhou's house, and Ge Dongxu wants to go to the school first.

Changxi No. 1 Middle School is not far from Cheng Yazhou's home. It takes about fifteen minutes to walk, and only five or six minutes to ride a bicycle.

Changxi No. 1 Middle School is the only first-level key middle school in Changxi County, with no junior high school, only a high school.

Changxi County is ranked first in Changxi County, regardless of hardware conditions or faculty. Every year, many students are admitted to key universities, such as Tsinghua University, Yenching University, and Jiangnan University, and other famous governments in the country. As for ordinary undergraduate and colleges, it is even less necessary. Therefore, in the eyes of the people of Changxi County, once they are admitted to Changxi No. 1 Middle School, they are basically half a foot into the university. If a child is admitted to Changxi No. 1 Middle School, it will definitely be more respectful.

Of course, it is a different matter if you buy something like Cheng Hao. But even if you buy it, there is a limit on scores. Generally, if you have too low scores, you don’t want to enter Changxi No. 1 Middle School even if you spend money, you can’t even enter Changxi No. 1 Middle School. So from a certain perspective, Cheng Hao’s grades are actually OK among the students in Changxi County. If you go to an ordinary high school, you are also the top figure.

The environment of Changxi No. 1 Middle School is very good. A river flows slowly by not far from the school gate. Behind it is the back mountain next to Changxi County Park Mountain, which is the lush mountain that Ge Dongxu saw from a distance at the station before, and it is truly surrounded by the mountains and waters.

"The Feng Shui here is good, and the air is less turbid than other places. Unfortunately, it's not appropriate to practice in school, otherwise it would be better to live in the collective dormitory of the school directly." Ge Dongxu has been practicing Taoism with Ren Yao since childhood, and has a wide range of knowledge. Not only can he breathe the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but he can also draw talismans and feng shui, divination and physiognomy, etc. So after walking around the campus, Ge Dongxu judged that Changxi No. 1 Middle School not only has good Feng Shui, but also has less turbid air.

After walking around the campus for a rough time, Ge Dongxu left the campus, then found a restaurant near the school, ordered two dishes of meat and vegetables, and dealt with it casually.

After dinner, Ge Dongxu did not return to Cheng Yazhou's house immediately, but instead asked the hotel owner to find out where there was an incense and candle shop nearby.

The incense and candle shops sell funerals and Buddhist supplies. Generally, few people will ask about the incense and candle shop, let alone a young man. So the hotel owner looked at Ge Dongxu with a strange look several times before telling him where there is a incense and candle shop nearby.

Ge Dongxu asked about the place of the incense and candle shop, so he headed straight to the incense and candle shop. When he arrived at the incense and candle shop, he bought twelve-knit yellow paper and some cinnabar.

There are about a hundred pieces of yellow paper in one knife.

Ge Dongxu bought yellow paper and cinnabar to draw talismans.

Talisman is a "magic weapon" for practitioners to communicate the mysterious power of heaven and earth. There is a saying that "If you don't know the tricks, you will make ghosts and gods laugh. If you know the tricks, you will be shocked to make ghosts and gods scream." This is the mystery of drawing talismans, so you can't draw randomly.

Although Ge Dongxu studied Taoism with Ren Yao for six years and practiced Taoism independently for two years, he was still not satisfied with drawing talismans and was far from reaching the level of "shocking ghosts and gods". Therefore, he had to spend a lot of time practicing in drawing talismans. The so-called practice makes perfect. Although there are tricks to drawing talismans, it is far from being as simple as painting gourds according to their appearance, proficiency is also important.

Before coming to the county town, there was not much yellow paper and cinnabar left at home. Ge Dongxu thought that the yellow paper occupied space and caused trouble, so he did not buy it in Baiyunshan Town, but went to the county town to buy it.

The owner of the incense and candle shop is a middle-aged woman. It felt strange to see Ge Dongxu, a young man, come to buy yellow paper and cinnabar. Generally, those who come to buy yellow paper and cinnabar are either monks and Taoists or older people. This is the first time she met a 15 or 16-year-old boy who came to buy yellow paper and cinnabar.

"Brother, why are you buying yellow paper and cinnabar?" When Ge Dongxu paid for it and left, the owner of the incense and can't help asking. Before Ge Dongxu could answer, she added: "I know the monks from Guangyun Temple and the Taoist Master of Qingguanshan Taoist Temple. If your family needs it, I can introduce them to your house to do rituals."

Obviously she thought there was a funeral at Ge Dongxu's family or something unclean appeared.

"Thank you, the boss lady, no need, I just bought some to play around with it." Ge Dongxu was slightly stunned, then replied casually and left the incense and candle shop.

"Don't play? The young people are becoming more and more confused nowadays!" The boss's wife shook her head and said to herself as she looked at Ge Dongxu's departure.
